Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrous oxide emissions from soils: how well do we understand the processes and their controls?
Klaus Butterbach-Bahl,Elizabeth M. Baggs,Michael Dannenmann,Ralf Kiese,Sophie Zechmeister-Boltenstern +4 more
TL;DR: Improved process understanding, building on the increased use of isotope tracing techniques and metagenomics, needs to go along with improvements in measurement techniques for N2O (and N2) emission in order to obtain robust field and laboratory datasets for different ecosystem types.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Application of ecological stoichiometry to plant-microbial-soil organic matter transformations
Sophie Zechmeister-Boltenstern,Katharina M. Keiblinger,Maria Mooshammer,Josep Peñuelas,Andreas Richter,Jordi Sardans,Wolfgang Wanek +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of resource stoichiometry on soil microorganisms and decomposition, specifically on the structure and function of the soil food web, have been investigated, focusing on heterotrophic microbial communities.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A review of the state of the art in understanding the processes involved in the exchange of trace gases and aerosols between the earth's surface and the atmosphere can be found in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methane, nitrous oxide and ammonia emissions during storage and after application of dairy cattle slurry and influence of slurry treatment
TL;DR: The research project aimed at quantifying CH4, NH3 and N2O emissions from liquid manure stores and after manure application under field conditions found that Anaerobic digestion was a very effective means to reduce GHG emissions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adjustment of microbial nitrogen use efficiency to carbon:nitrogen imbalances regulates soil nitrogen cycling

TL;DR: It is found that microbes retain most immobilized organic N when they are N limited, resulting in low N mineralization, however, when the metabolic control of microbial decomposers switches from N to C limitation, they release an increasing fraction of organic N as ammonium (low NUE).
